I feel like Billie's perspective in our society is so refreshing and lacking so much! I relate to her so much and I hope that her presence in the music industry makes a difference on people and their lives in general. ❤️

Nothing matters, and so things matter. It both is and is not. 1 and 0. Very open philosophy. Leaves room for interpretation and is pretty much on the same par as 42. So long and thanks for all the fish, Billie. ❤

Since the interview is immediately after a show she had, it is normal that she s tired and sleepy...and maybe not in a mood to give interviews, idk...and normal people do get tired and look tired, esp since we do not wear make up to hide it.

I like this interviewer, idk what everyone else is saying. She feels like he's asking her questions she didn't rehearse, and I think she prefers real conversations than interviewing questions.

it’s insane to know that she is one of the most popular music artists out right now and she loves her music of course but i feel so bad for her and her mental state. you can tell she needs to take a break from this and just kinda detox. to put into prospective is that she’s only 16. i’m about to be 17 in a few weeks and even having a normal life is frustrating and hard for me, just imagine her job at 16 and not really having a 100% real teenage life. i love billie and hope she takes time off to really worry about herself for awhile. i hope for the best :)

typically i like to think of myself as good at reading people's expressions and i can honestly say i don't know why everyones saying this interview was awkward or that neither wanted to be there, she even says mid interview that she appreciates his interest in the real answers instead of the ones her management gave her to say, in my opinion she either felt unconfortable because she didn't know how to answer that specific question about her influences "musically." or she was just just thrown off at first by the questions he was giving her, i imagine she went in expecting to have to answer a bunch of meaningless questions from some guy who was just there because he'd been asked to. instead she got a open and honest discussion with someone who genuinely wanted to know more, in my books that's a good interview.

He's such a white male haha. He's very human, and she's soooo elevated. But she's wrong. Because it does matter. If you do something really good, you're going to touch someone's life and they're going to impact the next person in the same way you did to them...So, your life does actually really matter, but it doesn't matter at the same time. That's the catch.

This interview is the best one I’ve seen. And this interviewer is amazing asking sincere thoughtful questions. Not oh how many Instagram followers do you have or is there a boyfriend in the near future or what’s your next big thing. It’s more personal thing that Billie herself cares about that he’s trying to understand and understand why . Great great greattttt❤️

Hey People, I'm not here to complain BUT To Everybody saying "Somebody at the age of 16 don't derseve this amount of fame should be here or in the spotlight this much", should really think about that, Because if she was not famous, you would not know of her music or her, so the love you have for her, or the appreciation you have for her wouldn't be there. Everybody wants to know the feeling of fame and the love you get from it, so listen when she and other celebrities are keeping it real about the industry
